PROGRAMS - PRESET The treadmill has eight different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts. These eight programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals. HILL This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of gradual progression from approximately 10% of maximum effort (the level that you chose before starting this program) up to a maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout time, then a gradual regression of resistance back to approximately 10% of maximum effort.
Page 21
STRENGTH This program has a gradual progression of resistance up to 100% of maximum effort that is sustained for 25% of the workout duration. This will help build strength and muscular endurance in the lower body and glutes. A brief cool-down follows. Incline: There is a quick climb to a moderate, sustained elevation that lasts the majority of the workout length.
Use the Speed + / - keys to adjust, then press Enter. Each program has various speed changes throughout; this allows you to limit the highest speed the program can reach. The Message Center will be blinking at the preset top incline of the selected program. Use the Incline + / - keys to adjust, then press Enter.

There must be a steady intensity signal value in the heartbeat window. Press the PROGRAM key to select HR PROGRAM and press ENTER.

HEART RATE EXERTION The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benefits of exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people find that their usual choice of exercise intensity was either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benefit range.
Page 26
HEART RATE - PERCEIVED EXERTION Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables involved in how hard you should work out than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout.
USING HEART RATE TRANSMITTER (OPTIONAL) How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter: Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. Position the transmitter centered in the middle of your torso facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center).
MAINTENANCE & CARE POST-WORKOUT TREADMILL CARE 1. Store your treadmill according to the folding instructions when not in use. 2. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean areas where sweat or oil made contact with the treadmill. 3. Use a microfiber cloth to clean the touchscreen and remove unwanted oils and other things that may damage the screen.
